The
Society for Women's Health Research, www.womenshealthresearch.org,
is the nation’s only non-profit organization whose mission
is to improve the health of all women through research, education
and advocacy.
We
picked the Society to benefit from our sales because we cater to
women who have chosen to take control of their sexual health. Protecting
and focusing on women’s health is all part of who we are and
the Society has made it their mission to advocate for the appropriate
inclusion of women in major medical research studies. Plus, they
focus on the need for more information about conditions affecting
women disproportionately, predominately, or differently than men.
Because
Sex Matters…
Differences
between the sexes exist, and whether a person is male or female
matters in the prevalence and severity of a broad range of diseases,
disorders, and conditions. It matters at every stage of life - from
the very beginning to the very end. It matters at every level -
from the single cell to the entire body. It matters to the health
of everyone.
The
Society advocates increased funding for research on women’s
health; encourages the study of sex differences that may affect
the prevention, diagnosis and treatment of disease; promotes the
inclusion of women in medical research studies; and informs women,
providers, policy makers and media about contemporary women’s
health issues.
For
every V Bag that is sold, we will contribute part of your purchase
to the Society. Let’s raise these folks a lot of money!!
